Elevated roof
The California 6.1 offers comfort in a small space. You can set up the elevating roof of the California 6.1 in just a few easy steps at your holiday destination or stopover. The expanding roof gives you extra space to move around in the passenger compartment. Setting up the elevating roof is easy in the California Ocean as it’s operated electrically. As night falls, you can transform the camper van into your own comfortable bedroom to sleep four.
Fully fitted kitchen
Prepare a tasty meal anywhere, any time. A kitchen on wheels: the California 6.1 Coast and Ocean offers you a fully fitted kitchen with a cool box, sink and stove kitchen unit. The mini-kitchen in California 6.1 Beach Camper can help you prepare basic meals and is easily stowed when travelling. Plus there’s a camping table and chairs which can be set up outside or stowed neatly away to save space when not being used.

More comfort, more connectivity
The California 6.1 makes your journey as comfortable as possible with intelligent mobile online services and next-generation infotainment systems. The new infotainment systems are fully touchscreen and feature redesigned graphics, as well as an integrated SIM card as standard that offers a range of online functions and services.
The Volkswagen Digital Cockpit is a customisable, full colour digital 10.25" gauge cluster that lets the driver change views to display the most relevant information:
- Classical view showing the speedometer and rev counter dials in a traditional format
- Digital view without dials - vehicle speed and key information is displayed in text format
- Digital view with additional information - as above but with additional vehicle and trip information displayed
- Comes as standard on the California 6.1 Ocean
Constant online connectivity
All-new across the California 6.1 range, the integrated SIM card (eSIM) comes as standard with the new infotainment systems. The eSIM opens up a range of online-based functions and services to California 6.1 owners.
For example, following an accident, eCall automatically send the vehicle location to an emergency response centre and establishes a voice connection. If the driver doesn't respond, eCall automatically informs the emergency services. Internet connectivity also lets the California 6.1 access the new 'We Connect' world of mobile online service (MOS).
